BEGINNER CLASSES

One Step at a Time

Little Cavaliers (Ages 6-9)

Our youngest fencers get started with fencing basics using plastic swords. These plastic weapons require less protective clothing than metal weapons, but still give the feel of real fencing. As students gain coordination and control, they will advance to child-sized metal weapons and full protective gear. Classes run in 6 week segments throughout the school year and are open to both beginning and continuing students.

Youth Beginner Class (10-14)

Our beginner classes welcome anyone new to the sport as well as those who have not fenced in a while and want a refresher.
